Transgender Candidate Enters Race for Governor

A few weeks ago we aired a documentary on Mountain Lake PBS about Christine Hallquist, the head of an electric utility in Northern Vermont, who is a transgender woman. Hallquist announced this week that she is resigning as CEO of the Vermont Electric Co-Op to run for governor, in Vermont. If elected, Hallquist would be the first transgender governor in the United States. Watch our studio interview with Hallquist, her son Derek, and filmmaker Aaron Woolf who made the documentary.
